What will they do when they discover they took the wrong girl?A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:When I set out to write the Freak House series, I wanted to put my own spin on the Gothic novels of the Victorian era. I've always loved their creepiness, the secrets, and the romance too, but I wanted to see the story from the perspective of the character that is often present but never the heroine - the girl kept in the attic.I hope you'll enjoy this trilogy as much as I enjoyed writing it.~CJ
